Our schools here are on Spring Break. My two sons had middle school basketball practice this morning. As I'm watching practice, a really nice older woman walked in. I had never seen her before. There was about 15 parents scattered all over the bleachers. For some reason she chose to sit down beside me. She immediately said she had a grandson out there playing. I could tell by her accent she wasn't from around our area. She said she had come into town for a week to see her daughter. I asked her where she was from. She said Pennsylvania. I was like oh well that's neat. As we kept talking, I noticed she wasn't just the ordinary grandma. This woman new sports. She asked me if I was a big TitAn fan. I said no maim, I'm a Cowboy fan. She said oh. I think she could have told every Steeler fact there was if I asked. She then said that she use to despise the Cowboys. I said well as a fan , I have never really cared for the Steelers either. She then said the Cowboys were her 2nd favorite team. I said why. She said because of Sean. It didn't hit me right off the bat. I actually first thought Sean Payton. She then said that Sean Lees grandparents live next door to her. She said he was the nicest little boy growing up. Supposedly it broke Steeler nations heart when they passed on him in the draft. She said the guy they picked never really played. She said she has only seen him three times in the last few yrs but every time he made a point to stop in and see her. Small world.

Cool story indeed...thanks for sharing...

AND...just another reason to like Sean Lee. I swear he is as close to Derek Jeter and Adam Graves as I have seen. Has he ever said or done the wrong thing??? And I mean EVER???

She was a really nice lady. She said Lees grand father is a Judge. She talked like they were the nicest people.

I concur with Manster. Your "cool" story should have been another paragraph or two and ended with a money shot.

Just looked up 2010 draft. We took Lee with the 55th pick. The Steelers had the 52nd pick and took LB Jason Worilds. He actually had a couple of decent years, but I can see why she and other Pennsylvanians would be heart broken.

This women was all about her Nitnany Lions and Steelers.

The woman if I was guessing is 60-65. Down south here, 65 is the new 40 so if I was interested there shouldn't be a problem. If I was guessing Goldie Hawn, Mary Steenburgen, Suzanne Sommers, Donna Mills, - just to name a few are older than her. I can't believe yAll think I would take advantage of a damn Steeler fan. HA

Of she's willing I'd take advantage of her, doesn't matter what team she's a fan of. Now don't go putting this on social media like Deangelo did.
